Purpose of a Pilgrimage - By Sri.Sri.Muralidhara Swamiji

January 8, 2010

Radhe Krishna To all,"We need to be in the company of the great souls who are ever immersed in "Bhakthi" (Devotion) to nurture the same within us." --- SRI SRI MURALIDHARA SWAMIJI--------------------------- Purpose of a PilgrimageOnce

there lived a man who had a unique pastime. Whenever he found

information about organized tours to Kshetras or Thirthas, he would

immediately join the group. By doing so, he had visited almost all

important kshetras hundreds of times. He once narrated all this to his

neighbour, who was heartbroken to hear the same. He cursed his illfate

that prevented him from visiting kshetras and thirthas. He was

heartbroken and was crying inconsolably. He told his neighbour 'How

fortunate you are! You must have earned countless punyas by your

yatras.'To

this, he replied, 'I will give you all the punyas i earned from all

these yatras! in return, will you give me those tears that you are

shedding ?'Very true indeed! What purpose is achieved by

travelling to all Kshetras mechanically. All and sundry go on trips to

holy cities! Our hearts should melt in devotion when we think of the

Kshetras. Only then, the true purpose is achieved.Sri.Sri.Muralidhara Swamiji New Year 'MAGIC SPELL' Discourse in tamil , Mass Prayer with Mahamantra -
